I loved Ronnie. He was such an honest and generous man. We will surely miss his smile , his laugh, his generosity to others, his guitar, his fishin, his cooking and so many other things that were so special about him. He made my mom very happy and was such a dear friend to her.
Ronnie , you will be missed.
We love you .
